The Outcast Heiress’s Secret Identities
Chapter 622 - Chapter 622 0612 They were given too much face

Chapter 622: 0612 They were given too much face Chapter 622: 0612 They were given too much face That scourge had repeatedly vowed in her presence to destroy Enrich, and now it seemed that she had not been bluffing.

Wen Peipei remained silent, and seeing this, Su Xinyan took out her mobile phone to check the latest news online.

Indeed, the tide had completely turned; now it was she and Tan Lirong who were being mercilessly lambasted.

#Thief#

The words #Thief’s Daughter# incessantly jabbed at her nerves.

Her hand clutching the phone turned white with rage.

Damn Su Ran!

She always liked to oppose her, and now she had been smug for far too long.

After putting away her phone, she looked at Wen Peipei with some worry.

“Grandma, what should we do next? The impact online is too significant, and Enrich…”

The previous crisis had not been completely resolved, and now with these issues, it was a catastrophe for both the Su Family and Enrich.

The things Su Xinyan could think of, Wen Peipei surely could as well.

But what could she do even if she had thought of them? She was utterly helpless now.

Looking at Wen Peipei’s face, grim and exhausted, Su Xinyan bit her lip and suggested softly:

“Grandma, doesn’t Grandpa still have quite a few stocks, funds, and properties? Should we discuss with Grandpa about liquidating some to tie us over this emergency and help Enrich weather the storm?”

Wen Peipei closed her eyes wearily, “There’s no rush with your Grandpa’s assets, the most important thing right now…”

She paused, then suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Su Xinyan:

“Xinyan, has there been any news from the organizers yet?”

Su Xinyan’s eyes twinkled as she was about to answer, but the phone in the living room suddenly rang.

She quickly stood up, picked up the phone, and her face lit up upon seeing the caller ID.

“What is it? Who’s calling?” Wen Peipei asked curiously.

Su Xinyan looked at Wen Peipei excitedly, “Grandma, it’s an international call.”

Wen Peipei’s face also showed delight at these words.

“Then pick it up quickly.”

Su Xinyan nodded and then answered the call.

It was about ten minutes before the call ended.

Wen Peipei couldn’t wait and had already stood up from the chair, her aged face filled with anticipation and anxiety.

“Was it a call from the competition organizers?”

Su Xinyan was also visibly excited, “Yes.”

“Good, good, that’s excellent!”

Only now did Wen Peipei’s heart finally settle down completely.

She looked at Su Xinyan lovingly, pulled her to a sofa nearby, and said kindly:

“Don’t worry about your sister’s issues for now, the most important thing is the awards ceremony. Also, as for your in-laws and Gu Heng, they left in anger today. When you go back, talk to them nicely; try to appease them.

“However, you don’t have to be too submissive in front of them; you are the pre-determined champion. In the future, the Gu Family will rely on you; they don’t have the right to be uppity in front of you.”

Thinking of what Gu Qiming had just said, Wen Peipei still felt some displeasure in her heart.

Su Xinyan nodded obediently and agreed:

“I understand, Grandma.”

Yet, inwardly, she was full of scorn for both Gu Qiming and Deng Jingru; she did not take them seriously at all.

Gu Heng goes without saying.

She and Gu Heng were married, and it was a done deal. Even if they had many ideas, she was now the young mistress of the Su Family.

Besides, the Gu Family was also looking forward to her winning the championship, so how could they possibly be truly angry with her?

On the drive back, Gu Qiming was seething with anger, and his face was so dark it could drip water.

Deng Jingru sat beside him, trying to console him:

“Alright, don’t be angry. Xinyan has already married into the Gu Family, no matter what she says, she is now the daughter-in-law of the Gu Family. You were too disrespectful towards the Su Family just now. Moreover, what does Tan Lirong’s actions have to do with Xinyan? Why are you so angry…”

At these words, the fury in Gu Qiming’s chest grew even stronger.

“Not her business? There’s a saying that goes, like mother, like daughter. If her mother is like that, how good can the daughter she bore be? Look at all the things they’ve done, which one of them is presentable? Now she’s Gu Heng’s mother-in-law, having a mother-in-law who’s a thief. Do you want Gu Heng to go out and have people poke at his backbone? I gave them face? I think I gave them too much face already!”

Deng Jingru also felt embarrassed and could only persist, saying:

“But she has already married into the Gu Family; it’s not like we can return her now. Besides, Xinyan is the designated champion of this year’s World Designer Competition; after the award ceremony, when she gets the prize, can you not foresee the glory it will bring to the Gu Family? Marrying her is clearly all benefit and no harm for the Gu Family. Right now, it’s just a small setback…”

“Designated champion?” Gu Qiming scoffed disdainfully, “Do you think her behavior indicates a person who could win the championship? Don’t count your chickens before they hatch, or you might get happy for nothing.”

Deng Jingru still stood by her judgment, saying:

“It won’t happen. The Su Family treasures her so much; clearly, she has genuine talent. And if not Xinyan, who should be the champion? Su Ran?”

Gu Qiming frowned, “I actually think Xiao Ran has a better chance of winning the championship.”

Deng Jingru tugged at her lip, her expression full of disdain.

“How could a person with a history of plagiarism win the championship? If Su Ran really had the ability, how could the Su Family give her up for Xinyan? Compared to Su Ran, it just shows that the Su Family has more faith in Xinyan; otherwise, they wouldn’t put everything on her. I believe that marrying her, the Gu Family won’t be worse off in the future.”

“You…”

Gu Qiming became furious, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath.

“You just keep dreaming of her winning the championship, and don’t come to regret it when it’s too late. She’s already part of the Gu Family now, so just pray she truly loves Gu Heng!”

“…”

Deng Jingru pursed her lips and didn’t speak further, her expression clearly showing she didn’t take Gu Qiming’s words to heart.

–

Qianran International.

Su Ran sat in her office browsing the news online; public opinion had completely turned against them.

Everyone was cursing Su Xinyan and Tan Lirong.

Some netizens even formed small teams specifically to gather Su Xinyan’s negative information online.

It must be said, they did uncover quite a few little-known things.

Acting like a diva, bullying newcomers, deliberately damaging other actresses’ costumes on set, and so on.

Once these were listed by netizens, the internet immediately became a bustling place.

Su Ran raised an eyebrow; the effect was not too bad, and it met her expectations.

With a “snap,” she closed the laptop on the desk, leaning lazily on the chair behind her.

Why wait until noon to make the announcement?

It was, of course, to deliver a “return gift” to Su Xinyan.

The kind delivered to her doorstep.

With her malicious nature, how could she miss an opportunity to annoy them?

If they could eat lunch with an appetite today…

She would count it as a loss!
